Ms. Pat Law from Ogilvy was our guest lecturer today.
I’ve learnt pretty loads of things and here are some useful links: (Credits to Nizam who managed to copy all of them down)
How to search for news on blogs

The most important thing I’ve learnt today is that…BLOGS HOLD VALUABLE INFORMATION. Not only that, BLOGGERS ARE WORSHIPPED. All because blogs have all the fresh content with different perspectives and…constant regular updates. Besides, bloggers are like you and me. Sometimes some people see things that you don’t. Not everyone could catch every single detail that’s happening around you every second.
Shall blog about augmented reality and continuous partial attention tmr. Till then.
